Positive Being?

Here in Ohio, we have a Christian radio station called K-LOVE, and their motto is that they are “Positive and Encouraging, K-LOVE.” Now, this station used to be an actual Christian radio station–until K-LOVE bought them out. This older station played the programs of Larry Burkett, Randal Terry, James Dobson, and others. Sundays they played […]

Yahweh, commander of the hosts of heaven,
come , attend, arise and judge us, O God!
You are God, you speak and all things
bow, cast their crowns at the feet of Jesus,
lift up your people,
defend them from that ancient dragon,
the serpent who has invaded your garden,
disguised and speaking lies as
the father of lies.

My college newspaper recently published an opinion piece titled “What’s With Wicca?” by one of the wiccans on campus explaining the Wiccan religion for halloween.

Happy Thanksgiving

I hope everyone is having a wonderful Thanksgiving with their families and friends. I know I’m enjoying it so far as I clamber and tick-tack at my computer briefly. We’ve called up and spoken to most of the extended family (all of whom live all the way out in California and Colorado), which was nice. […]
